aphrogenian asked: Hi Inés, what are your thoughts on dermarolling? I've heard that a dermarolling routine has helped people with skin like mine (bad hyperpigmentation) but im hesitant to try it. Also, do you have any drugstore/cheaper high end lipstick recs? I'm boycotting so need something to replace what I usually get from Mac and maybelline. Thanks!

Dermarolling is a no for me. If an ingredient can’t absorb deep into your skin on its own, then it’s a risk poking holes into yourself and introducing it to a deeper layer of skin than it was designed for because there have probably been no studies testing any topical ingredients for that type of use!
The idea behind dermarolling is that it helps the “active” ingredients in your skincare absorb deeper. Unfortunately, any given piece of skincare contains more “inactive” ingredients (read: fillers) than star ingredients. For example, I use a serum that contains water, glycerin, several types of silicone, thickeners and emulsifiers, and all those ingredients show up higher on the ingredients list than hyaluronic acid and any antioxidant ingredients. I don’t know about you but I don’t want microscopic silicone spheres penetrating my skin. Not to mention parabens and other preservatives!
So the idea is that using a dermaroller with your skincare helps make your skin healthier by helping skincare penetrate deeper, and not only is there no science to support that but I bet you any independent studies would find it more damaging than healthy.
So dermarolling seems like a scam to me. It will not cause Retinol to build more collagen. It won’t cause antioxidants to fight more free-radicals. A dermaroller can’t cause glycolic acid to exfoliate more dead surface skin cells. And as far as clearing up acneic skin, remember that acne is a symptom of inflammation. Needles poking holes in your skin are only going to cause more inflammation! So my advice is to avoid it altogether.
And as far as cheap lipsticks go, you can’t go wrong with colourpop. The price is right and so is the formula.
But serma rolling is used to get rid of acne/scaring 70% of thr time…
